In addition, the biologic response to wear debris is notaddressed in these test methods.1.5 Requirements are

35、 test methods are proposed for the mechanicaltesting of artificial intervertebral discs specific to the cervical,thoracic, and lumbar spine.4.2 All tests are to be performed on the prosthesis size withthe smallest safety factor for the levels indicated for implan-tation. If this worst-case size cann

36、ot be determined usingtheoretical or experimental methods such as simple stresscalculations or finite element analysis, then all available sizesare to be tested and the complete range of results are to bereported.4.3 Fatigue testing of the artificial intervertebral discs willsimulate a motion segmen

37、t via a gap between two polyacetaltest blocks. The polyacetal will eliminate the effects of thevariability of bone properties and morphology for the fatiguetests. The minimum ultimate tensile strength of the polyacetalblocks shall be no less than 61 MPa.4.4 Static testing of the artificial intervert

38、ebral discs willsimulate a motion segment via a gap between two stainlessFIG. 2 Compression Testing ConfigurationF2346053steel blocks. The minimum tensile yield strength of the blocksshall be no less than 1170 MPa.4.5 The pushrod shall be manufactured from stainless steelhaving minimum tensile yield

39、 stress of 1170 MPa and be ofminimum cross-sectional area that would produce a compres-sive yield strength of at least 25 000 N.4.6 Static and dynamic tests will evaluate the artificialintervertebral disc. The user of these test methods must decidewhich series of tests are applicable to the artifici

40、al interverte-bral disc in question. The user of these test methods maychoose to use all or a selection of the tests described in thesetest methods for testing a particular artificial intervertebraldisc. For example, the torsion test method may not apply to adevice that has no mechanical resistance

41、in axial rotation.5. Significance and Use5.1 Artificial intervertebral discs are orthopaedic implantsthat replace degenerated natural intervertebral discs. Theirfunction is to support the anterior column of the spine whileallowing motion at the operated level. These test methodsoutline materials and

42、 methods for the characterization of themechanical performance of different artificial intervertebraldiscs so that comparisons can be made between differentdesigns.5.2 These test methods are designed to quantify the staticand dynamic characteristics of different designs of artificialintervertebral d

43、iscs. These tests are conducted in vitro in orderto allow for analysis of individual disc replacement devices andcomparison of the mechanical performance of multiple artifi-cial intervertebral disc designs in a standard model.5.3 The loads applied to the artificial intervertebral discsmay differ fro

44、m the complex loading seen in vivo, andtherefore, the results from these tests may not directly predictin vivo performance. The results, however, can be used tocompare mechanical performance of different artificial inter-vertebral discs.5.4 Fatigue tests should be conducted in a 0.9 % salineenvironm

45、ental bath at 37C at a rate of 2 Hz or less. Other testenvironments such as a simulated body fluid, a saline drip ormist, distilled water, or other type of lubrication could also beused with adequate justification. Likewise, alternative testfrequencies may be used with adequate justification.5.5 It

46、is well known that the failure of materials is depen-dent upon stress, test frequency, surface treatments, and envi-ronmental factors. Therefore, when determining the effect ofchanging one of these parameters (for example, frequency,material, or environment), all others should be kept constant tofac

47、ilitate interpretation of the results. In particular, it may beFIG. 3 Compression/Shear Testing ConfigurationF2346054necessary to assess the influence of test frequency on devicefracture while holding the test environment, implant materialsand processing, and implant geometry constant.6. Apparatus6.

48、1 Test machines will conform to the requirements ofPractices E4.6.2 The intervertebral height, H, shall be determined fromvertebral body and disc morphometric data at the intendedlevel of application. Suggested heights are as follows: 4 mmfor the cervical spine, 6 mm for the thoracic spine, and 10 m

49、mfor the lumbar spine. The intervertebral height should not reachzero prior to the onset of functional failure deterioration. If thisoccurs, the test is considered a failure. The user of these testmethods should select the intervertebral height that is appro-priate for the device being tested.6.3 Axial Compression Test Apparatus:6.3.1 The actuator of the testing machine is connected to thepushrod by a minimal friction ball-and-socket joint or universaljoint (that is, unconstrained in bending).
